This presentation was delivered as part of the Tribal Lands and Environment Forum: Virtual Gathering in August 2020 by Heidi Brow and Alexis Wallick, Pala Band of Mission Indians.
A case study: The Pala Environmental Department (PED) has a robust outreach program that has helped us to increase awareness of our tribe’s environmental objectives and steer our community towards more environmentally friendly behavior changes. PED wants to share some of the outreach tools, ideas, visuals, strategies, and messaging that have been successful for us over the last 10 years (and some not-so-successful attempts). So, if you’re like us & eager to build your outreach toolbox, stop by to get some ideas that you can take home to build your own outreach program. We are also hoping that our audience will feel open to sharing some of their tips as well, since we all have valuable experiences to share.
